Lyrics The Way I Am - Neil Sedaka
Stormy
sky
before
me,
Heavy
winds
are
blowin',
I'm
a
mean
old
man,
heaven
help
me
for
the
way
I
am.
Livin'
up
the
good
times,
Sufferin'
the
bad
times,
Tryin'
to
make
it
easy
on
myself
Treadin'
on
a
fine
line.
Stormy
sky
before
me,
Heavy
winds
are
blowin',
I'm
a
mean
old
man,
heaven
help
me
for
the
way
I
am.
In
and
out
of
trouble,
Up
and
down
with
women,
Lord
I
get
so
damn
confused
sometimes,
Starts
my
head
to
spin
yeah.
Father
get
your
shotgun,
yeah,
Mother
warn
your
children,
Tell
'em
I'm
a
mean
old
man,
heaven
help
me
for
the
way
I
am.
Make
no
appointments
for
me,
Make
no
excuses
for
me,
You
might
not
like
me
much
But
you
know
you
can't
ignore
me.
Join
me
when
I'm
singin',
oooh,
Help
me
when
I'm
screamin',
Find
me
when
my
mind
is
almost
gone
From
drinkin'
and
a'dreamin'.
Drag
me
from
the
bar
room,
Take
me
up
to
your
room.
Tell
ya,
I'm
a
mean
old
man,
heaven
help
me
for
the
way
I
am.
Join
me
when
I'm
singin',
oooh,
Help
me
when
I'm
screamin',
Find
me
when
my
mind
is
almost
gone
From
drinkin'
and
a'dreamin'.
Drag
me
from
the
bar
room,
Take
me
up
to
your
room.
Tell
ya,
I'm
a
mean
old
man,
heaven
help
me
for
the
way
I
am,
I'm
a
mean
old
man,
heaven
help
me
for
the
way
I
am,
I'm
a
mean
old
man,
heaven
help
me
for
the
way
I
am,
I'm
a
mean
old
man,
heaven
help
me
for
the
way
I
am...
